So, Kelly Clarkson is definitely one of my favorite singers of all time (Barbra Streisand being, of course, my number one favorite singer). I love the fact that the majority of Clarkson's song lyrics really say something, and that's one of the main things I look for in a song: it has to have a meaning, a story or some kind of truth in it. The lyrics have to mean something in some way. Sure, there's lots of songs that I like that have absolutely no meaning to them (for example, "Domino" by Jessie J. Now that's just a song I like to dance around like a crazy person to, hahaha!) But yeah, like I said, for me, a song's lyrics have to mean something, in one way or another. Maybe the meaning is vague (like "Disturbia" by Rihanna. I have NO idea what that song's about) or maybe the meaning is crystal clear (like "What The Hell" by Avril Lavigne). And the majority of Kelly Clarkson's music is crystal clear in it's meaning (for example, "Never Again", "The Trouble With Love Is" or "How I Feel"). All of the lyrics in those songs say something, and I can relate to the lyrics, which makes the song more personal and makes it feel more like it was meant for me.
Anyway, Kelly Clarkson just last year came out with a new album called Stronger. And I must say, two of the songs I've heard from it (the two they play on the radio at least) are A-MAZ-ING. I love these songs, and, once again, I love the lyrics especially. And one of the songs I really love because it's such an empowering song! It really is! The minute I heard it and started listening to what the lyrics were, I fell in love with this song. So, here you go! The new song from Kelly Clarkson's album Stronger, "What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger)"
"Are people born Wicked? Or do they have Wickedness thrust upon them?" ~ Glinda the Good Witch from the musical 'Wicked'.
